I just want to add in this thread that there's another known problem on
Windows that could affect you. If your display settings are set to 16 bit,
GnuCash won't run. Most people have their display settings set to 24 or 32
bit, but if you connect remotely to another machine (via Remote Desktop),
this connection is by default 16 bits. Just something to be aware of if you
are working with remote connections. This has been reported as a bug in the
GnuCash bugtracker [1], but is more likely a bug in gtk.

Apparently I was experiencing that crash as well.  However, I disconnected
and reconnected at 24 bit and it made no difference.  I am going to leave
GnuCash running to see what happens when I connect remotely and it is
already started.  Is it safe to assume this bug only affects the new GTK
version?  I am fairly certain that I was running 2.4.7 in a remote session.
